Reviews
This rare and wondrous book will capture the imagination of fungi fans. You might be thinking that's a fairly small demographic, but once kids see this graceful compilation that looks like a quaint nineteenth-century natural science tract--features detailed, labeled illustrations in vivid colors that pop off pages--and read about how fungi are actually closer to animals than plants, they'll be hooked. . . The text is authoritative and informative, but the real attraction is the artwork. There are glorious spreads of ecosystems, and even the end papers are worth a look. . . This will make a handsome addition to STEM collections and should attract browsers and budding mycologists alike. --Booklist (starred review) Led by Gaya, a team of mycologists from the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, offers an irresistible, oversized introduction to fungi. Dedicated to the "next generation of mycologists," this well-designed handbook approximates a tour of a museum, or "fungarium," complete with foil ticket for entry and four galleries--"Fungal Biology," "Fungal Diversity," "Fungal Interactions," and "Fungi and Humans." Stop-you-in-your-tracks biological illustrations colorfully depict spores, yeasts, molds, and mushrooms. . . Even the monochromatic endpapers are frameworthy. . . Kid-pleasing macabre facts abound. . . An immersive, exquisitely illustrated trip to the fungal kingdom. --Kirkus Reviews (starred review) The author's direct language welcomes the reader into the captivating world of fungi. The readers will feel as if they are entering into a real museum as they are directed to tour each gallery in a wonderful reading experience. . . . Opposite the text are the sumptuous and colorful illustrations. The renderings are elegant, vivid, and exquisitely detailed. . . . The museum is dense with information about the fungal world, and this title represents a fascinating and beautiful work of art which explores the rarely-visited world of fungi. --School Library Connection These woody mushrooms get a 'gallery' of their own in the gorgeous, museum-evoking pages of 'Fungarium'. . . Illustrated by Katie Scott and written by Ester Gaya, with the help of a phalanx of specialists, 'Fungarium' presents a jaw-dropping vision of the multifarious and largely hidden world of organisms that are, we read, 'more closely related to animals than they are to plants.' --The Wall Street Journal, This rare and wondrous book will capture the imagination of fungi fans.
